A Blast from the past!

So some sketchbook fun! 

After recently having to go through and sort a lot of my stuff, I knew there was one thing that was left still to go through... my whole entire collection of sketchbooks from GCSE, A-Level and College. I knew this was going to be a task and a half so I planned to do it in my week off for my birthday as I had some holiday still to use and well couldnt really do much else so I thought that was the perfect opportunity..! 

Here is the post from my facebook page from when I managed to get them all down from the loft. I really don't know what I was thinking! haha! 

Luckily for me, I had already gone through what I wanted to keep for future years to come. To be honest I don't think I could live with myself if I chucked my sketchbooks out that I worked so hard on! 

However, I did decide to keep a couple of the little ones down to look through occassionally for old times sake..  :) Even though one of them I did actually promise Mum that she could keep herself.. I am making the most of owning them again while I am still living with the folks. 

Anyway that's enough for now.

A bit of watercolour fun.. new blog... new logo.. new name..

So today, I decided I would get the new watercolour palette out that I had bought myself a little while ago.  After going through my old GCSE, A-Level and College Sketchbooks while I was off for my birthday last week,  I thought it would give me some inspiration to get back into loving what I enjoy doing again.  

Anyway, so this is what I have been up to lately. I am starting fresh with a lot of things and one big thing in particular is my blog. This blog, so I hope you are liking it so far. Once I get going again then hopefully I will be a bit better in the content. At the moment, it still feels a bit strange starting fresh but good things will come I promise you. :) 

So, I am playing around with new blog names and logos at the moment and I have a few ideas in mind to which I am just experimenting with before I finialise my design. 

Thought I would still share though! :) 

There's nothing quite like a brand new watercolour palette though! 

Watch this space for more exciting things!

Snow Day 24th January 2021

 Day after Mum's Birthday. It was a frosty morning and we decided it would be nice to go for a walk. It ended up thawing out by the time we actually got up and out of the house. As we drove to our secret destination for a our walk it started snowing. A 'light flurry' thinking ahh it wouldn't be much... turned out it got heavier and starting settling on the ground. 

Need I say more...!

My Lockdown 30th Birthday & New Gadget Alert!

 

The Fabulous 30th ey!! 

Who would've thought I was going to have my 30th Birthday in a National Lockdown I know I certainly didnt! haha! 

I still managed to have the bubbles, amazing food with the lovely family and the gorgeous little nephew (over Zoom of course!)

I did also have the most amazing pancakes in the morning though... 

There is pancakes under there.. honest! I had had made a 4 stack of mini American pancakes and they were soo good! Lots of fruit, creme fraiche and maple syrup drizzles all over it.. 

So last week, I decided I wanted to treat myself with a new smoothie blender. I had seen the Nutri Bullet blender at work and always fancied getting one after my old one wasnt all that good. Thought it would be a good idea to get back onto my health kick again especially after christmas and being at work even through this lockdown... all the snacks because being click and collect only.. whatelse is there to do apart from eat chocolates and biscuit on my shift! :O So having a week off for my birthday, its back to work on monday. It's going to be a take a smoothie to work kinda thing from now on! :) Let's see how long that lasts shall we! haha! xx

xx Much Love and here's to 2021 and some new adventures and maybe a big party when we can! xx

New Blog for 2021!

As for all of us we thought YES 2021 bring it on! Turning out over a month into a new year and we are still living 2020! Crazy to think what we are still dealing with and worse! :( I can only hope and say that everyone please stay safe and well. 

So with this being my first post of 2021, I thought I would bring you some pictures I have taken of some of my favourite flowers recently. I thought it would be a nice idea to get my much loved camera back out.  :)

So the purpose of this blog will be for me to post up whatever I feel like posting, whether it will be lifestyle stuff, crafty stuff and generally just things I am interested in. :)
